Features

Self-adhesive silicone gel layer

Reusable

Non-adherent outer silicone membrane

Benefits

Improves the appearance of scars
Widely used by hospitals, dermatologists, and surgeons for the management of hypertrophic and keloid scars.

Easy to use
The CICA-CARE™ adhesive gel sheet is soft, comfortable and simple to apply. It can be cut to size to fit most scars. Durable and reusable, it can be used day or night.

Self adhesive
The skin contact side of CICA-CARE™ is self adhesive, while the upper side is a strengthening non-adhesive silicone membrane. Therefore secondary fixation may not be required, making the product more user friendly, and can lead to higher patient compliance.

Durable
The silicone membrane and gel combination make CICA-CARE™ more durable and less likely to “crumble” in comparison to other silicone gel sheets.

Conformable
CICA-CARE™ is a very conformable silicone gel sheet. Because it is self-adhesive, CICA-CARE™ can be easily used in many awkward anatomical locations, including earlobes and sternal areas.

Reusable
One piece of CICA-CARE™ can be easily washed and reused. Once it becomes difficult to clean, a new piece should be used. This usually occurs after 14 to 28 day intervals.

Cost effective
CICA-CARE™ is durable and reusable. Each cut piece lasts up to 28 days in use, making it a cost effective regime.

Indications
CICA-CARE™ is intended for use as follows:

For the management of hypertrophic and keloid scars.

May prevent the formation of hypertrophic and keloid scars.

For use only on intact skin.

For covering hypertrophic and Keloid scars as a means of reducing the size and erythema of scars resulting from burns, trauma and surgery.

Gently clean the scar and surrounding skin with a mild soap and rinse in clean warm water. Thoroughly dry the scar and surrounding skin.

Remove gel sheet from tray.

Step 2

Cut gel sheet, to fit scar size, with a small overlap over the surrounding skin.

Step 3

For first two days use CICA-CARE ™ for 4 hours per day.

For next two days use CICA-CARE ™ for 8 hours per day.

Continue to increase wear time by 2 hours per day until a minimum of 12 hours per day is reached. If possible CICA-CARE ™ should be worn 24 hours per day.
